covering the amandy beret case ever since she disappeared. >> reporter: they've gone through every emotion you can imagine. there have been close calls in the years that have gone by so they were cautious in the beginning but hopeful of course and then all that turned to just pure joy. a moment that they knew would come one day but how it came today just unbelievable. incredible watching this family and all their emotions. >> you said there were some close calls and there's a man serving time now for lying to authorities about where her remains might have been. did they ever give up hope? >> reporter: no. it was just this past july where there was a very close call where they were digging for remains and beth serrano kept saying to me, bill, i just don't think that's my sister down there. it's not her. if they find something, it's not my sister. she never gave up hope that her sister was still alive and even today she was very cautious at first as this thing started to unfold.

she wanted to be sure that that was her baby sister that was being taken to the hospital that was found in that home and i can tell you when she did get that news, those tears, tears of joy, an amazing moment to be in the family's home behind me. that's serrano, amanda's sister, rush eed to her baby sister's bedside in the hospital. that's where we were able to catch a photo that was just priceless. worth 1,000 words. that reunion between two sisters. this is a family who is very close. through these ten years, we do reunion stories or anniversary stories i should say on april the 21st, which was the day that she disappeared. we do those stories every year. this year i saw beth serrano at the anniversary, the ten-year anniversary. sad, emotional day for her. even that day, just a couple weeks ago she told me, bill, my sister is alive. i know it. i feel it.
